Composite Front Doors in London
The kerb-appeal of a solid painted timber front door with the warmth, security and colour-fastness of modern engineering. Our composite doors have a 44mm solid timber core, a moulded GRP outer skin and a lifetime of maintenance-free finish.
Composite Front Doors designed around front doors that need to look right on a stucco terrace and secure a family home.
From Chelsea townhouses to Hampstead villas and Ruislip family homes, we install across every London borough — inside the M25 and out. Our surveyors know the quirks of Victorian sashes, Edwardian bays and post-war casements.
Working across London means understanding period detail, party-wall etiquette and permit parking as well as we understand glass. We schedule dust sheets, protection and clean-down like a good building firm should.

Common questions from London homeowners.
- How do composite doors compare to timber?
- The look is nearly identical from three paces; the finish lasts far longer. A painted timber door needs stripping and repainting every 3–5 years. Our composite finish is guaranteed colour-fast for 15.
- Are composite doors warmer than uPVC?
- Marginally — 1.2 W/m²K vs 1.4 W/m²K on standard glazing. The bigger difference is the 44mm solid core, which cuts noise transmission and gives the door a reassuring weight when it closes.
- Can I match a heritage colour?
- Yes. Chartwell Green, Painswick, Farrow-and-Ball Hague Blue and Downpipe are among the most-requested. Any RAL is available to order for around 10% more.
- What's the security like?
- 3-star anti-snap TS 007 cylinder as standard — the highest anti-snap rating available. Combined with multi-point hook locking and laminated inner glass on side panels, it's the specification insurers ask for.
- How long do they take to make?
- 6–8 weeks from order to installation is typical, including survey, template, manufacture and fitting. Painted RAL colours add around a week.
